I'll remain uninspired thanks. Are you really that numb??? Guy played against DS’s teams last season and impressed DS enough to go out and sign him. DS gets sacked, new manager comes in and doesn’t fancy him as a player And moves him out to get more game time and off wage bill. Does that scenario sound familiar???? I think some of guys are suffering from the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're fully entitled to your opinion. However you also said If you're happy for us to sign a young player that can't get a game for Barnsley that's fine by me. DS knows the player and possibly thinks he is ideal for the system he wants to play whereas the Barnsley manager maybe just thinks he doesn't suit their system. PS - What you say will turn out to be right or wrong but at least you're not a merchant of hindsight. Ah, now that's a different question JamboAl. I 100% want Stendel to succeed. Is the jury out on him? For me, at the moment yes, until performances and results improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's playing in a completely different defensive zone now and perhaps not suited to how Stendel wants to play. At Livi he'd sit on the edge of the box for 90 minutes winning headers and inviting pressure. At Hearts he's going to be on the halfway line and required to run back towards goal chasing long balls over the top. It'll be interesting to see how Stendel manages him.

Captain Canada Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 It's great we've signed someone else that Stendel wants. If he's a holding midfielder it will be interesting to see who drops out. Smith could go back to right back but then where does Clare play? And I also wonder what it means for Damour and Bozanic's chances of getting any game time between now and the end of the season. I highly doubt Stendel has brought him in to warm the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 We must be trying to offload Damour... And I think we had competition for his signature when he signed so I’d hope we could get that done in a week.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were safely mid table looking towards Europe, I’d maybe question it but the fact that we are not guaranteed to be playing SPL football next year, do we want to sign someone on massive wages when there will be lower income. Other side is they might not be wanting to play second tier football in Scotland next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not getting relegated is the priority and if short term signings are his way to get us out of bother then that’s what we’ll have to accept.
